Notes and Safety Instructions
Notices regarding COPYRIGHT (VP-D101i/D102Di/D103i/D105i only)
Television programs, video tapes, DVD titles, films, and other program materials may be copyrighted.
Unauthorized copying of copyrighted material may be against the law.
Notes regarding moisture condensation
1. A sudden rise in atmospheric temperature may cause condensation to form inside the camcorder.
for example:
— When you move the camcorder from a cold location to a warm location (e.g. from outside to inside during winter.)
— When you move the camcorder from a cool location to a hot location (e.g. from inside to outside during the summer.)
2. If the (DEW) protection feature is activated, leave the camcorder for at least two hours in a dry, warm room with the
cassette compartment opened and the battery pack removed.
Notes regarding CAMCORDER
1. Do not leave the camcorder exposed to high temperature (above 60°C or 140°F).
For example, in a parked car in the sun or exposed to direct sunlight.
2. Do not let the camcorder get wet.
Keep the camcorder away from rain, sea water, and any other form of moisture. If the camcorder gets wet, it may get
damaged.
Sometimes a malfunction due to exposure to liquids cannot be repaired.

ENGLISH
Notes and Safety Instructions
Notes regarding the battery pack
— Make sure that the battery pack is fully charged before starting to record.
— To preserve battery power, keep your camcorder turned off when you are not
operating it.
— If your camcorder is in CAMERA mode, and it is left in STBY mode without
being operated for more than 5 minutes with a tape installed, it will
automatically turn itself off to protect against unnecessary battery discharge.
— Make sure that the battery pack is fitted firmly into place.
Dropping the battery pack may damage it.
— A brand new battery pack is not charged.
Before using the battery pack, you need to charge it completely.
— It is a good idea to use the viewfinder rather than the LCD when making a long
recording, because the LCD uses up more battery power.
* When the battery reaches the end of its life, please contact your local dealer.
The batteries have to be dealt with as chemical waste.
Notes regarding the Video Head Cleaning
— To ensure normal recording and a clear picture, clean the video heads regularly. If a square block-shape distorts playback,
or only a blue screen is displayed, the video heads may be dirty. If this happens, clean the video heads with a dry type
cleaning cassette.
— Do not use a wet-type cleaning cassette. It may damage the video heads.
88
ENGLISH
Notes and Safety Instructions
Note regarding the LENS
— Do not film with the camera lens pointing directly at the sun.
Direct sunlight can damage the CCD(Charge Coupled Device).
Notes regarding electronic viewfinder
1. Do not position the camcorder such that the viewfinder is pointing towards the sun.
Direct sunlight can damage the inside of the viewfinder. Be careful when placing the camcorder under sunlight or near a
window exposed to sunlight.
Notes regarding ‘Record’ or ‘Playback’ using the LCD
1. The LCD display has been manufactured using high precision technology. However, there may be tiny dots (red, blue or green in colour)
that appear on the LCD display.
These dots are normal and do not affect the recorded picture in any
way.
2. When you use the LCD display under direct sunlight or outdoors,
it may be difficult to see the picture clearly.
If this occurs, we recommend using the viewfinder.
3. Direct sunlight can damage the LCD monitor.
Notes regarding the hand strap
— To ensure a steady picture during filming, check that the hand strap is properly adjusted.
— Do not force your hand into the hand strap as you could damage it.
99
ENGLISH
Notes and Safety Instructions
Precautions regarding the Lithium battery
1. The lithium battery maintains the clock function and user settings; even if the battery pack or AC adapter is removed.
2. The lithium battery for the camcorder lasts about 6 months under normal operation from time of installation.
3. When the lithium battery becomes weak or dead, the date/time indicator will display “— -” when
you set the DATE/TIME to ON.
When this occurs, replace the lithium battery with a new one(type CR2025).
4. There is a danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.
Replace only with the same or equivalent type.
Warning: Keep the LITHIUM BATTERY out of reach of children. Should a battery be swallowed,
consult a doctor immediately.
SERVICING
Do not attempt to service this CAMCORDER yourself.
Opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
REPLACEMENT PARTS
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specified by the
manufacturer and having the same characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.

Battery level display
•
The battery level display indicates the amount of power remaining
in the battery pack.
a. Fully charged
b. 20~40% used
c. 40~80% used
d. 80~95% used

✤ Please refer to the table on page 25 for approximate continuous recording time.
✤ The recording time is affected by environmental temperature and conditions.
The recording time becomes very short in a cold environment. The continuous recording
time in the operating instructions are measured using a fully charged battery pack at
77°F(25°C). As the environmental temperature and conditions may differ when you
actually use the camcorder, the remaining battery time may not be the same as the
approximate continuous recording times given in these instructions.

D102D, D103, D105, VP-D101 specifications
The Samsung VP-D101, VP-D105, VP-D103, and VP-D102D are part of a range of digital camcorders that marked a significant advancement in consumer video recording technology. These models, which gained popularity in the early 2000s, offered several features that appealed to both amateur and enthusiast videographers.
One of the main features of these camcorders is their compact design combined with user-friendly controls. With a lightweight body, they were easy to carry around, making them ideal for capturing spontaneous moments during family gatherings, vacations, or outdoor adventures. Each model boasts an intuitive interface, allowing users to navigate through settings seamlessly and focus on recording rather than operating complex functionalities.
Another notable aspect of these camcorders is the inclusion of a 20x optical zoom lens, enabling users to capture sharp and detailed images from a distance without sacrificing quality. The optical zoom was complemented by digital zoom capabilities, giving users enhanced flexibility in framing their shots. Additionally, the models featured a built-in image stabilization system, which helped reduce the impact of camera shake, ensuring smoother video playback under various shooting conditions.
The VP-D series camcorders are equipped with a 1/6-inch CCD sensor that delivers a resolution of approximately 680,000 pixels. This sensor technology allowed for better low-light performance, enabling users to shoot in challenging lighting conditions while maintaining acceptable image quality. Coupled with the camcorders’ ability to record in various formats, including MPEG and DV formats, users could easily share or edit their footage with compatible software.
Audio quality was also prioritized, with built-in stereo microphones capturing clear sound alongside visual recordings. Moreover, users could connect external microphones through a dedicated input for enhanced audio performance in more controlled shooting environments.
Battery life on these camcorders was commendable, allowing for extended recording sessions without frequent interruptions for recharging. The models were often equipped with rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, further enhancing their portability and ease of use.
In summary, the Samsung VP-D101, D105, D103, and D102D camcorders offered a blend of quality, convenience, and innovative features that catered to a broad audience. With their ergonomic design, impressive optical capabilities, and respectable performance in various conditions, these models remain a notable part of Samsung’s legacy in the digital video recording market.
